An engaging, character-driven tale of romance and clashing swords.” — Kirkus Reviews

No one is born with magic.
Only in the hour of breaking is it found—
and Waenia Wyvarian is about to shatter.

Waenia wears a borrowed name, crowned in borrowed blood, raised to serve a kingdom that fears her. She wears many faces to hide the one they dread—the one that surfaced once, before the court, when the power she didn’t understand came alive. But masks crack, and power never stays buried. When forbidden magic awakens in her hands, Waenia becomes Thiros’s greatest weapon… and its greatest threat.

Moreover, to end the rising war against Luvian Veskar, her father binds her to an enemy prince—hoping for peace. But Waenia’s heart already belongs to the prince’s commander, Darrin Rhone—a man bound by duty, haunted by loyalty, and carrying secrets that could unmake them both.

Love and loyalty count for little when gods die. Conversely, the Gate of Light, once the world’s salvation, has become corrupted by shadows that feed on creation’s remnants.

As Waenia uncovers the truth behind her name—the lies that raised her—she must decide how to go on. Torn between duty and defiance, she must choose whether to save the world that broke her… or remake it.

Left alone on the throne, Waenia senses the north’s growing danger as her father and Darrin wage war on two fronts. She weighs loyalties and duty amid court rumors and marching armies. The test of her resolve is relentless.

Waenia wrestles with love, faith, destiny, and defiance. She faces the man who calls himself God-King and must choose how to stand.
Will she raise her blade… or let the light choose her?
